South and Central America Handball Confederation

The South and Central America Handball Confederation (SCAHC) (Spanish: Confederación Sur y Centro Americana de Balonmano (COSCABAL)) is the governing body of the Olympic sport of Handball and Beach handball in South America and Central America.

One of IHF's six continental confederations, the SCAHC was formed officially on 5 April 2019 in Cali (Colombia).

There was some development in South American level but that was also not comparable to the other continents like Europe, Asia and Africa.

[1] No team from Americas had ever reached to the semifinal stage of the IHF World Men's Handball Championship and the IHF Men's Junior World Championship till date.

The PATHF appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, and it annulled IHF's decision.
